It was strange. I'd seen his power. I'd seen him die once before. That was scary. But you could never tell what frightened a person. Maybe when you controlled the forces of entropy and decay, the things that really scared you were impossible to describe... Occult Special Investigator Tess Corday is not known for her people skills. If a crime's been committed, she wants the guilty party to face justice--end of story. But when a powerful necromancer is killed, Tess has to handle the heavy politics in the occult community as carefully as she handles the scant evidence. A priceless suit of armor may know something abut the murder, but it's not talking. Neither is Tess's sometime consultant, sometime lover, Lucian Agrado--who is officially representing the necromancers in the grisly matter. Tracking down the necromancer's killer will pit Tess against old enemies, draw her into forbidden realms--and force her to confront a nightmarish truth that will change her world forever...
